1/8" Tube Inline Unidirectional Pneumatic Flow Control

The Pneuforce JSU1/8 JSU is an inline one-way flow control for 1/8" pneumatic tubing. Push-to-connect ports on both ends allow the control to be installed anywhere along a tube run when an accessible remote adjustment point is preferred.

An adjustable needle meters airflow in one direction while an internal check path allows free flow in the opposite direction. The JSU can be used to tune actuator or circuit speed without requiring a threaded connection at the component being controlled.

Inline One-Way Flow Adjustment

The JSU places an adjustable one-way restriction directly in the pneumatic tube run. This is useful when there is no convenient threaded mounting point, when actuator access is limited, or when the operator needs the adjustment control positioned away from the cylinder or valve.

Key Features

  • Inline unidirectional pneumatic flow control
  • Push-to-connect tube ports on both ends
  • Adjustable restriction in one airflow direction
  • Internal check path provides free flow in the reverse direction
  • Remote adjustment point can be positioned away from the actuator
  • Nickel-plated brass construction for industrial pneumatic service

Typical Applications

  • Remote pneumatic cylinder speed adjustment
  • Machine automation and assembly equipment
  • Packaging machinery
  • Material handling systems
  • Control panels and pneumatic tube runs
  • Retrofits where direct actuator-port mounting is impractical

How the JSU Works

The JSU combines an adjustable needle and an internal check valve in an inline body. Airflow in the controlled direction passes through the adjustable restriction. Flow in the opposite direction bypasses the needle through the check path. Because the valve is installed in the tubing rather than threaded directly into a cylinder, confirm the required controlled-flow direction before connecting the tube.

Important: Check the flow direction marked on the valve body before installation. For actuator speed control, orient the JSU so the intended cylinder flow is metered in the required direction. Cut tubing squarely, push it fully into both fittings, and adjust the needle gradually during commissioning.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the JSU series used for?

The JSU is an inline one-way pneumatic flow control used to adjust airflow and actuator speed from a convenient point in the tube run.

How is the JSU different from the JSC series?

The JSU has push-to-connect tube ports on both ends and installs inline. The JSC combines a push-to-connect tube port with a threaded right-angle port for direct mounting at a cylinder or actuator.

Does the JSU restrict flow in both directions?

No. The adjustable needle controls one direction, while an internal check path allows free flow in the opposite direction.

Can the JSU be used for cylinder speed control?

Yes. It can regulate airflow associated with a pneumatic actuator, but because it is installed inline rather than directly at the cylinder port, the valve must be oriented correctly for the desired controlled-flow direction.

What tube size does this model use?

This JSU1/8 model uses 1/8" pneumatic tubing on both push-to-connect ends.
